Answer
37 new teaching spaces, a library, administration space and a multipurpose space (across six projects) have been committed to through Budget 25 funding. 13 of these teaching spaces are currently in progress (in construction). Three projects that will deliver the other 24 teaching spaces are in the design stage and are expected to move into construction within the next 1-4 months.
